Of course, if there are no beneficial organisms left in the soil after pesticide and high levels of inorganic fertilizer applications, then the organisms in Alaska Humus, or Georgia humus, or Oklahoma Humus will help immensely, and will start the process of building the soil so when the indigenous organisms do arrive, they have condomuniums already present for them to move into.
Non-natives may not be the absolute best thing to get out there, but having someone doing the work is better than no work being done. The locals can take over much more easily once the initial site construction is underway.
